FFmpeg exited with code 218 - s_p - 2025-04-18
hello
I am having difficulty playing some files only through the Android app while everything is ok from the browser.
The host is a fanless with N5105 cpu and jellyfin installation is through docker.
In the logs I see MediaBrowser.MediaEncoding.Transcoding.TranscodeManager: FFmpeg exited with code 218.
Can this be fixed?
This is my >>>log<<<

and docker-compose

Leave the "QSV device" field blank. It should only be populated if you have more than one Intel GPU in the system.
If you did have more than one, that field accepts an index number and not the device path. For example, if you have an Intel iGPU and an Arc GPU, you'd use "1" to select the Arc GPU whereas the iGPU would likely be "0". When blank the Intel driver will select the first available device.

Done, but the problem remains. It's strange though that it only happens on Android devices and fire sticks, everything works fine on the web browser.
I tried to open the same file with Kodi, VLC, and MX Player, and there were no issues.

Can you share your ffmpeg log?

Jasper Lake requires that you setup low power encoding. Not optional with that CPU generation.
https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/administration/hardware-acceleration/intel/#low-power-encoding
Once you setup the firmware, you will need to check both low power encoding boxes in the transcoding dashboard.

Can you help me to configure firmware?
there is too much information but I don't know which ones to follow
RE: FFmpeg exited with code 218 - TheDreadPirate - 2025-04-18
What OS is the host running?
RE: FFmpeg exited with code 218 - s_p - 2025-04-18
